Maps

Map 1 is a map of the Bertrand Creek watershed in Township of Langley, British Columbia that indicates the locations of stream reaches that have been identified as critical habitat for Nooksack dace in the Recovery Strategy for the Nooksack dace in Canada (2008). In the identified reaches, critical habitat includes all aquatic habitats as well as riparian reserve strips of native vegetation on each side of the stream. The riparian reserve strips of native vegetation extend from the top of the bank on each side of the stream to the widths specified by the symbol used to identify the reach on the map. The coordinates for the start and end point of each critical habitat reach and the widths specified for the riparian reserve strips associated with each reach are listed in Table 1. Reaches on the map are labelled with codes that correspond to codes used to identify the reach in Table 1. — Map 1: Critical Habitat — Bertrand Creek Watershed

Map 2 is a map of the Brunette River watershed in Burnaby, New Westminster and Coquitlam, British Columbia that indicates the locations of stream reaches that have been identified as critical habitat for Nooksack dace in the Recovery Strategy for the Nooksack dace in Canada (2008). In the identified reaches, critical habitat includes all aquatic habitats as well as riparian reserve strips of native vegetation on each side of the stream. The riparian reserve strips of native vegetation extend from the top of the bank on each side of the stream to the widths specified by the symbol used to identify the reach on the map.

TABLE 2

Key Features and Attributes of the Critical Habitat

Item	Geographic Location	Life Stage	Function	Features	Attributes
	Column 1	Column 2	Column 3	Column 4	Column 5
1	Reaches within Bertrand Creek, Brunette River, Fishtrap Creek and Pepin Creek watersheds	Adult and juvenile	Spawning, nursery, rearing and feeding	Riparian habitat	• Native riparian vegetation that is continuous for the entire length of the reach and extends laterally (inland) from the top of the bank to a width equal to the widest zone of sensitivity (calculated using methods consistent with those used under the British Columbia Riparian Areas Regulation) in order to: — protect the integrity of aquatic features such as riffle and shallow pool habitat — provide large and small woody debris — provide localized bank stability — provide shade to buffer instream temperatures — provide terrestrial insect input — limit entry of additional nutrients
2	Reaches within Bertrand Creek, Brunette River, Fishtrap Creek and Pepin Creek watersheds	Adult	Spawning (April – July)	Riffle habitat	• Loose gravel and cobble substrates • Sufficient water velocity (> 0.25 m/s) and flow to support riffles • Dissolved oxygen (≥ 5 mg/L) • Little or no additional sediment • Few or no additional nutrients • Adequate quantity and quality of food supply (e.g. riffle-dwelling insects)
3	Reaches within Bertrand Creek, Brunette River, Fishtrap Creek and Pepin Creek watersheds	Juvenile	Nursery and rearing	Shallow pool habitat	• Water depth of 10 – 20 cm • Sand, mud or leaf litter substrates • Adequate quantity and quality of food supply (e.g. chironomid pupae and ostracods) • Location beside riffle habitats • Dissolved oxygen (≥ 5 mg/L) • Little or no additional sediment • Few or no additional nutrients
4	Reaches within Bertrand Creek, Brunette River, Fishtrap Creek and Pepin Creek watersheds	Juvenile	Feeding	Shallow pool habitat	• Water depth of 10 – 20 cm • Sand, mud or leaf litter substrates • Adequate quantity and quality of food supply (e.g. chironomid pupae and ostracods) • Location beside riffle habitats • Dissolved oxygen (≥ 5 mg/L) • Little or no additional sediment • Few or no additional nutrients
4		Adult and juvenile		Riffle habitat	• Loose gravel and cobble substrates • Sufficient water velocity (> 0.25 m/s) and flow to support riffles • Dissolved oxygen (≥ 5 mg/L) • Little or no additional sediment • Few or no additional nutrients • Adequate quantity and quality of food supply (e.g. riffle-dwelling insects)
